Black Beauty — It's a Lac, do I have to say more? The car's performance is hot. 400 horsepower in a four door luxury sedan, them's Charger numbers people! Look, I'm not a big GM fan myself but who doesn't love a Cadilac. Beauty, Boldness, Luxurious, Powerful, and FAST! It's impossible not to love this car.

Exelent Car — This is a great car to travel in or pose around the city. the interior is amazingly built to less than one milemeter and the only part thats odd is the nav has no clock (digital) aparently not built in and the speeker grills break with just one little push

Perfect For Year And Milage — Nothing yet bad yet! Attractive, perfect long trip, a real cruiser. Friends and folks that service it always want to buy it. I have had 15 Cads now and this DTS is the best ever. Electric reporting tire pressures, 4 heated seats and two cooled seats. Small built in and automatic drink (etc) cooler. Ken

Cadillac Dts Is Definitely A Great Car. — This is a good car for basic use, it rides smoothly, there's plenty of space in it, so you definitely don't feel cramped, and it has a nice design on the inside and out. Overall this car does perform good, she'll definitely get up to speed when you want her to.

Great Car If You Have The Money For It — The acceleration in this beast is incredible yet smooth you feel the push back but yet it sustains its comfortablility.The interior is very luxurious with a cherry wood finish and the outside states presedential.The car is very spacious and can seat six people comfortably.

An Amazing Luxury Vehicle. But It's More Than That, It's A Terrific Performance Car, Street Or Track — Performance on the car with a terrificaly built Northstar V8, it has plenty of get-up with all the luxury you want. Braking is great with new brakes, though mine need tightening. This car is perfect all over, the car has no issues. The styling is modern but keeps with the classic Cadillac look and feel. It's an absolutely a great car, I love the feel of the wood and leather sterring wheel while going down the highway.

Cadillac Dts — I like it, if only it was new...LOL The performance is great. Build Quality is not that great. Appearance is nice. Ownership is great if nothing breaks. The DTS is very fun to drive. I would recomend a Cadillac only if your going to buy it NEW, just because if somthing goes wrong with it then its covered un the warranty of the manufacturer.

Everything good in a European car is missing from it!

Give Me European Anyday! — Oh dear! Coming from England and getting this as a hire car just reminded me of why American cars just don't sell in Europe! The handling is something else and the build quality really does leave a lot to be desired. Its big and ungainly...if you like this then fair enough but if it was sold in Europe it would be a laughing stock! It does make a lovely noise when you poke it though!
